Valutazione e Autovalutazione della Competenza Comunicativa : Studio sugli Studenti di Italiano LS (Univ. Blida2)
No full textThis research highlights the difference between teachers’ assessment of communicative competence and learners’ self-assessment of their own competence. It emphasizes the importance of education in self-assessment from the earliest moments of teaching practice to measure learning progress and foster autonomy. The intention of this work is to check the autonomy, awareness, and responsibility of second-year students at Blida 2 University in their learning process. We initially defined key concepts such as communicative competence, assessment, and self-assessment; then we described the instruments used in the research and simultaneously analyzed the data obtained from the survey. Finally, we compared the results obtained from the assessment with those from self-assessment to answer the initial questions
La valutazione dell’espressione orale nell’insegnamento dell’italiano come LS al liceo in Algeria
No full textABSTRACT: Any activity carried out by humans in various fields of life requires pausing to verify the progress made and to identify the types of problems that may have negatively impacted the results of this activity. In the educational field, the assessment of student learning is an important phase in the teaching/learning process. Every teaching act should be evaluated to possibly make adjustments or corrections, and in language teaching, where the aim is to enable students to master communicative competence, the student has the opportunity to communicate progress, difficulties, and needs. Therefore, assessment is a continuous process in all various educational activities.
RIASSUNTO: Qualsiasi attività svolta dall'uomo nei vari campi della vita, richiede di soffermarsi a verificare i progressi compiuti, e identificare il tipo di problemi che potrebbero aver influito negativamente sui risultati di questa attività. In ambito educativo, la valutazione dell’apprendimento dello studente è una fase importante nel processo di insegnamento/apprendimento. Ogni atto didattico dovrebbe essere valutato per poter eventualmente prendere delle decisioni di aggiustamento o di recupero e nell’insegnamento delle lingue straniere in cui si mira a far padroneggiare agli studenti la competenza comunicativa, e attraverso essa, lo studente ha la possibilità di comunicare i progressi, le proprie difficoltà, i bisogni. La valutazione pertanto è un processo continuo in tutte le varie attività educative
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Impatto del Fumetto nella Valutazione : Studio con Studenti di Italiano LS all'Uni di Algeri 2 (Anno 2)
No full textThe teaching of foreign languages challenges teachers to find new engaging and effective ways to teach, such as using comics to promote teaching/learning and assess language skills. This article examines the use of comics as an assessment tool, by analyzing the results of an activity conducted with a group of students learning Italian as a foreign language. The objective is to explore the impact and potential of implementing comics as an assessment tool in the didactic of Italian as a foreign language, enhancing learners’skills and opening new perspectives for innovation in the assessment of foreign language teaching/learning
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
